Answer:

Geometric

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, a sequence is arithmetic if there is a common difference in the successive terms,

While it is geometric if there is a common ratio in successive terms,

Here, the given sequence,

2, 4, 8, 16, 32..................,

Since, 4 - 2 ≠ 8 - 4 ≠ 16 - 8 ≠ 32 - 16........

⇒ There is not a common difference in successive terms,

Hence, the given sequence is not arithmetic.

Now,

\frac{4}{2}=\frac{8}{2}=\frac{16}{8}=\frac{32}{16}.......=2

⇒ There is a common ratio in successive terms,

Hence, the given sequence is a geometric sequence.

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

$899.15

0.85(1199) - 120

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the purchase total, multiply the price by the percent paid and subtract the certificate.

The store offers a 15% discount. This means you pay 85% of the price. So the discounted price is 0.85(1199) = 1019.15

Subtract the certificate 1019.15 - 120 = 899.15

The composite function is 0.85(1199) - 120.
